Humanimal Trust volunteers and volunteer Ambassadors play a vital role in supporting the work of the charity, undertaking a variety of activities from event support, giving talks and presentations about the work of Humanimal Trust to groups across the UK, and offering support to our small staff team.
We are proud to include such passionate, friendly and dedicated individuals within our team, assisting us in promoting a fairer society, with better opportunities to benefit equitably from medical progress for humans and animals everywhere.

Why I volunteer for Humanimal Trust and why One Medicine is important to me:
I started volunteering for Humanimal Trust in 2018, and have been a volunteer with the charity ever since. I’ve had a brilliant time since joining the team here at Humanimal Trust, not only attending events and meeting some really interesting people over the years, but also having the chance to learn something new alongside a fantastic team of dedicated people who work really hard to make it all happen.
I have to say that my learning curve was steep – my day job and that of Humanimal Trust were worlds apart, but the support of my charity colleagues has helped me immensely and I have been given the chance to lead and support our team of volunteers in helping raise awareness of Humanimal Trust and the understanding of One Medicine, to both public and professional audiences alike. Needless to say, I am continuing to learn – there is something new to me every day and I couldn’t be happier!
I am often asked what working as a volunteer means to me, and why I donate my time and energy to help Humanimal Trust meet its aims and goals. One Medicine makes perfect sense to me, finding improved and more effective ways to treat similar diseases that occur in all species can ensure a better future for all, and significantly reduce the need for animals being used for research. That is something that I feel is really worth working for, and all my time, energy and the effort that I have made, and continue to make, has been well worth it.
One Medicine is the way to go, it’s our future!
